Yep, did a full re-install and installed squid3 and squidguard-devel and all is working, except antivirus on squid3.

UPDATE: Clicked SAVE twice on antivirus settings of squid3, addressed stated config errors in red, and now antivirus is  working.

Snort, Squid3, and Squidguard-devel help contribute to make pfSense one hell of a firewall.

Hi

The proxy PAC file is provided by the filtering service provided to the school and nothing owrks without it.
However, I may now have a way past this as I'm being sent a fixed proxy IP and port which pfSense will take.

Thanks for respodning & trying to help.

Hey all,

I seem to be facing a similar issue, was wondering if any of you had any further insight. For the record, I'm running Squid 2.7.9 pkg v.4.3.6.

Here's the output to some of the commands mentioned previously:

php-fpm[27821]: /rc.start_packages: The command '/usr/pbi/squid-amd64/sbin/squid -k reconfigure' returned exit code '1', the output was 'squid: ERROR: No running copy'

But when I change something in the proxy configuration and save it, I only see the following in the logs:

php-fpm[96582]: /pkg_edit.php: Reloading Squid for configuration sync

I think this means it's working, but whenever my box reboots I see the "No running copy" error. Is this just a sham or is something really off?

Start again with Squid3.  Don't waste time trying to debug a broken package.

i dont understand why I'm blocking port 80

You typically block ports 80/443 so that your users are forced to use the proxy.  If your proxy is optional, then you don't need to bother blocking 80/443.

Thanks KOM,

You were right killing the antivirus (and stopping the services) did make everything work.

I now know where to look!

Thanks for all of your help!

The problem is squid version 3.4 is not compiled with ldap search custom sguid package should work

I was able to get it running by going through every tab and hitting save.  I saw this in another thread on here.

thanks for you help!

Well, you could do what I asked the other guy to do…

Hello, no I dont use captive portal. I Think this is related to the newer FreeBSD base operating system on 2.2, that it cannot listen on low ports. I get same error in HAproxy. I have disabled WebGUI redirect.

I will try to do a forwarding rule from port 80 to a higher port i firewall rules settings

Ok thank for Help :D

I will forward to other sys-log server.

Hi,

I'm also having the same problem on the 2.2.1 update.
i have also tried this: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=73640.0

although the service is now starting it's not blocking website as per categories.

Have you found a solution yet?

New SquidGuard apparently doesn't always stay running unless there is work for it to do.  Have you actually tried testing its functionality?

MS FTP "client" plus MS FTP "server" -> unusable junk. Get something usable, like http://www.ncftp.com/download/
